I found this clip interesting for a couple of reasons. The use of the pistol port on the Panther because they discontinued it after the first production run. And second watch how the Panther bounces back and forth up and down when the tank accelerates. And how quick it can accelerate. Of course after this training film the transmission had to be replaced... LOL!

Poor guy who got volunteered to play the Russian soldier Cool looking Panther. I wish all the RC manufacturers hadn't just done the G. I find the A the most interesting Panther variant but I don't have the skill to do a kit

I have built 2 A's. A LOT of work to convert. I have a D partially assembled. Will get to it someday! :-)

If there is a 1/16 Panther D static kit from Das Werk or somebody like that I could always build it and leave it as a broken down panzer on the field

Well for the longest time my Taigen Panther G was essentially that after moving a couple of feet.
